Thats what I think of the mag2's, my old original 525 mags are as strong as an ox and are still perfect working order and 3 of them are early models from 1999

I had that problem bought one brand new used it twice and was walking down the pier and I felt a wobble on my rod I thought my rod had spigot wobble but on closer inspection it was the loose rivals needless to say it was replaced immediately by the shop but after that I sold the other one and bought an USA 525 and there bullet proof

You need to look after your reels Briann and not chuck them about They might be pristine just like mine then

Seriously mate, get on to Gerrys and get a replacement sorted.
